The article systematically examines the role of religious coping in personal adaptation within post-secular society, based on a comprehensive theoretical analysis. The aim of the study is to analyze the processes of institutional transformation and semantic restructuring of religion in relation to the phenomenon of new religiosity and to identify their psychological consequences. The scientific novelty of the study lies in considering religious coping as a meaningful structure that ensures an individual’s psychological adaptation in post-secular context, as well as in systematically identifying the psychological effects of its positive and negative forms. The research methodology is based on the integration of classical sociological and psychological theories, the use of contemporary empirical studies, and a comparative analysis of theoretical and empirical data. The comparative analysis demonstrates that the impact of religious coping depends on its content orientation: positive religious strategies enhance cognitive reappraisal and coping self-efficacy and are associated with a stable increase in resilience and subjective well-being, whereas negative religious interpretations are characterized by higher levels of psychological distress, anxiety, and internal conflict. The practical significance of the study lies in substantiating that religion in contemporary society functions not only as a social institution but also as a dynamic socio-psychological resource that structures an individual’s system of meaning and ensures psychological stability and adaptation. The results of the study contribute to the development of new theoretical approaches at the intersection of philosophy of religion and psychology of religion by providing a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of personal adaptation through religious coping.
